That looks hand made and probably comes with the kit that includes the black plastic front fender vents.

[sarcastic-mode]Well, it’s roughly 1/18th the size of the WSM and since the 924 has SOOOO much in common with the 928 then it must be just as good.[/sarcastic-mode]

Seriously, this is not even a question: the Chilton is a (bad) coloring book next to the WSM.

At least Chilton's sprung for a color illustration on the cover. The artist probably got paid 2x more than he did for this job



I particularly like his interpretation of the shape of the hood.

Just saw this pic on FB, I apologize the owner for using it, but it's an unusual and beautiful color! And also a great pic!

... before the interweb, maybe even before FWSM were available to civilians. Best review I heard at the time was 'Maybe you could figure out how to change your oil from reading it...' :-/
